Doctor Xu naturally also heard about this matter and could understand the Prime Minister's concerns very well.

"Thank you so much, Doctor Xu, for asking you to come again so late at night."

Doctor Xu was an excellent doctor and the Prime Minister trusted him very much.

After confirming that his daughter was fine, the prime minister was completely relieved and the doubts in his heart gradually disappeared.

"You are too polite, sir. It is just a small favor. Since there is nothing else, I will take my leave."

After the imperial physician left, the prime minister stared at his daughter for a long time before leaving with his wife.

Lan Mingyue, who was lying on the bed, had no idea that the imperial physician had taken her pulse while she was asleep.

She never expected that even though she had concealed it very well, her father still found out.

On the other side, in the carriage.

Yingyi looked at An Qingqian and smiled secretly with her hands covering her lips.

"What are you laughing at?" An Qingqian glanced at Yingyi.

"Miss, I laugh at Miss Lan for being so gullible. It was clearly a candy that Miss Lan was holding, but she actually believed it was poison." Thinking of Lan Mingyue's fearless expression at that time, Yingyi's lips curled up.

"She just appears to be arrogant, but in reality she is a very simple girl. However, she trusted me and dared to eat it even though she knew it was poison."

"Although she wanted to compare herself with the young lady in everything, she was not a bad person and believed that the young lady would not really harm her, so she was willing to take the medicine. She was also willing to keep the secret for the young lady."

Yingyi has been with An Qingqian for so many years, so she naturally knows Lan Mingyue's character well.

"Well, Yingyi, did you find anything when fighting with those people today?"

When An Qingqian mentioned those men in black, Yingyi became serious.

"Miss, those people should be specially trained masters, but they don't look like death warriors." Thinking of the situation when they fought at that time.

Yingyi could feel that those people had a strong purpose, and that was Lan Mingyue.

At first, they didn't want to kill her, but they realized that if they didn't kill her, they wouldn't be able to complete their mission, so they decided to kill her.

"Yeah, I noticed that too." An Qingqian nodded.

"To be able to train so many masters, the people behind them must be extraordinary." An Qingqian's face was tense and her expression was a little worried.

These people actually dared to attack the Prime Minister's daughter. It can be seen that the people behind them are powerful and their intentions are not simple.

"Miss, why didn't you let me ask the man in black who was behind them?"

The leader of the men in black died, and the rest of the people were scared out of their wits. Yingyi wanted to force that man to reveal the real culprit behind the scenes, but was stopped by An Qingqian. She still doesn't understand why.

At that time, apart from the two of them, no one else would know about this. Why did the lady do this?

The carriage was parked far away, so Lan Mingyue would not be able to hear it.

"This matter is not simple. It is better for us to know less about it, so as not to get caught up in a vortex of power." An Qingqian shook her head slightly.

"Vortex of power?" Yingyi opened her eyes wide, even more confused.

"Yingyi, can't you figure it out?" Seeing Yingyi's rare surprise, An Qingqian's expression eased a little.

"Tell me, would an ordinary person dare to kidnap the Prime Minister's daughter?"

"I dare not." Yingyi shook her head.

"Yes, the person who kidnapped Lan Mingyue must be someone special. He is most likely the son of that person." An Qingqian pointed in the direction of the palace with a serious look.

Yingyi nodded suddenly.

"Lan Mingyue is the daughter of the Prime Minister and has no marriage contract. She is naturally a very dazzling existence among the crowd. Of course, other possibilities cannot be ruled out, but this possibility is very high."

This is the sadness of people like them. They cannot decide who they want to marry and can only obey the emperor's arrangements.

She is almost the same as Lan Mingyue. Their status does not allow them and their families to choose their marriage.

She was married to Xue Wanxian, and Lan Mingyue is now the main candidate for the princes' main wife.

That's why she made such a judgment.

"So that's how it is." After An Qingqian's reminder, Yingyi suddenly understood.

"Well, so, we absolutely cannot get involved in this matter. We can only pretend that we know nothing, so as not to get into trouble."

"Miss, I understand." Yingyi nodded heavily.

When the two returned to Xihe Courtyard, they saw a chair at the door. Bo Yun was sitting on the chair with his sword standing beside him, his face full of fierceness.

There were four maids standing behind her, each with a unfriendly look on their faces.

Seeing An Qingqian coming back, Bo Yun's face changed and he quickly stood up.

"Miss."

"What's going on?" An Qingqian glanced at everyone.

"Miss, it was Zhang. She led some people here and wanted to break into the yard while you were away to look for the silver. I had no choice but to do this."

Bo Yun trotted to An Qingqian's side, changed his previous fierce look, and began to complain in a wronged manner.

"Are you all okay?" When An Qingqian heard that it was Zhang who brought people here, a chill flashed in her eyes. Zhang was really lingering.

As they walked and talked, the maid closed the door of Xihe Courtyard and moved all the chairs in.

"No, young lady, I am not afraid of her at all. She wanted to force her way in, but I blocked the door with a sword and told her that if she dared to come in, I would kill her, or at most give her my life in exchange.

Zhang was scared, so she left angrily with everyone.

"Well, good, Bo Yun, you did a great job." An Qingqian patted Bo Yun's shoulder gently and praised with a smile.

"Hehe, Miss, I knew that Zhang was afraid of death, so she said that on purpose. That's why I don't want to sacrifice my life for her." Seeing An Qingqian praising herself, Boyun blushed and felt a little embarrassed.

"Okay, if this happens again in the future, remember, as long as Zhang and Xue Wanxian's lives are not harmed, I can handle the rest for you."

An Qingqian spoke in a domineering tone, and Yingyi and Boyun felt warm in their hearts after hearing it.

She didn't expect that Zhang would come here at this time.

But it makes sense when you think about it. Zhang is afraid of her, but not necessarily her own maid. She probably wants to take advantage of her status as an old lady to bully others.

However, she still thought she was that respected old lady?

Everyone has to give her face and obey her orders.

"By the way, how is the situation at Mingde Hall these days?" She kept the door closed these days and didn't know how Xue Wanxian was doing.

“Miss, Xue Wanxian has been recovering from his injuries these past two days. Doctor Yang is a skilled doctor and his injuries have recovered a lot, but he still can’t walk and can only lie on the bed.

Since that day, Liu Yiyi stayed obediently in her room, focusing on her pregnancy and hardly moving at all.

Both Zhang and Nanny Chen were extremely worried about the silver issue. Nanny Chen even went out for a special trip yesterday to gather the managers together and ordered them strictly to hand over 100,000 taels of silver within three days, no matter what means they used.

I guess that they have no more money in their account and they have no other options, so they resorted to this desperate measure. "
